Bill Hader stars in the first trailer for 'The Cat in the Hat' animated movie. The cast also includes Quinta Brunson, Bowen Yang and America Ferrera, and it's set for a February 2026 release.

I think the scene that best won me over to The Cat in the Hat’s side is the one where The Cat is about to do what he does best: ignore the rules. Pulling from the well of pure Looney Tunes insanity, we get a beautifully brief moment that mixes the innocence mentioned above with pure lunacy. It's an old gag, but it's playful and it works.

Warner Bros. Animation has unveiled the first teaser for the highly anticipated film adaptation of The Cat in the Hat, starring Bill Hader.
